“Your Goal Guide: A Roadmap for Setting, Planning and Achieving Your Goals could not have come at a better time. I am acutely aware that another shift in my life is looming on the horizon (that shift called retirement) and unlike my work life, I have not yet any goals about what that is supposed to look like! (I mean―retirement is about not working, right?) Wrong! Goals are important to set at every stage of our lives! And what I love about Deb’s book is that she helps us figure out what our true goals really are - not sales quotas we must meet or some kind of ambiguous “I want to do **** some day.” But real, achievable and maybe BHA Goals! “Her clarion call is to “…figure out how to set and reach your goals, while the rest of the world – and the rest of your life―is business as usual.” In such a way that you see a clear path to your new future, and the steps you must make. “I’m very much looking forward to moving forward in my journey with the D.E.B. Method―from determining what I really want to do when I grow up (and retire), to unveiling the different options available before moving from my current position (or if I even want/need to) to creating a clear and achievable path, to finally achieving the new goals I set. Thanks Deb for writing the perfect book at the perfect time!” ―Viveka von Rosen, Chief Visibility Officer & Co-founder at Vengreso

"Finally, the road map we need for goal setting! Debra Eckerling is the master of goal setting, and in this book she shows us how each of us can successfully achieve goals with a clear plan. Being a perfectionist at heart, goal setting is the foundation for everything I do, and that's the reason why I loved this book. By using her signature The D*E*B Method, Debra teaches us how to Determine, Explore, and Brainstorm to accomplish our plan. Whether we're setting personal or professional goals, Debra got us covered! The book has a lovely flow, it's very easy to follow the step-by-step process, and I loved the analogy between goal setting and a road trip. After all, life is a journey, and we travel every day through each moment and experience, don't we?
